Music Reviews
Cracker by Cracker, album
For some reason, I feel like I shouldn’t like the band Cracker—¦ but I do anyway. I suppose it’s what the band calls “Cracker Soul” that moves me. It’s that intangible there is in music that is added by pure feeling. Cracker songs are simple; easy chord progressions repeated …

Artist-Eminem
Year-2010

MGMT - Climbing To New Lows (Album)
Climbing To New Lows is the debut album released by MGMT. Though most fans associate MGMT with Oracular Spectacular, or Congratulations to a lesser extent, I still believe that Climbing To New Lows has some good songs on it and shouldn’t be written off as a poor debut effort. …

Album : Face Down - The Runaway (E.P)

Stuck with Each Other by Shontelle featuring Akon
The first time I heard the song I can say the song is an average song until it is use in the movie Confession of a Shopaholic as a theme song. It fit the two characters in the movie and I begin to like it. Stuck with each other …
System Of A Down - Lost In Hollywood (Song)
Lost In Hollywood, the final track of the first half of System Of A Down’s double record, Mezmerize/Hypnotize, is probably the track on this half of the record which I would consider to be the most powerful. What’s particularly significant about this track is that it really is Daron …
Phoenix’s album - Amadeus
When I first heard Phoenix’s new songs off of ‘Amadeus’ I found it to be absolutely amazing. My favorite tracks off it would have to be ‘Fences, and 1901′ the most popular tracks indeed. Although I found that after thorough listening, almost every song on the album began to …

Three Dollar Bill, Yall, 1997 Album by Limp Bizkit
There is something really special about this album. There are many people out there who do not appreciate Limp Bizkit that much. But I am guessing that those people will find less of the stuff they could object to on this record. For me personally, this album is probably …
Neutral Milk Hotel - In The Aeroplane Over The Sea (Album)
In The Aeroplane Over The Sea is the second and most recent album released by Neutral Milk Hotel. One of my friends considered this to be in their top five albums of all time, so I will admit that I went into the listening of the record with slightly …
Ed Sheeran - Castle on the Hill (2016 Song)
There is no doubt that Ed Sheeran is among the most talented singers in the world right now. His ability to write from his personal experiences or from his viewpoint of heavy themes drips heavily in the lines of his songs. What sets him apart from other great singer-songwriters …
AC/DC - Back In Black
Overview —“ Back In Black, the first album released by AC/DC after the death of their original singer Bon Scott is a tribute to him and a dedication as well. Although Back In Black is hailed as one of classic rock’s best album, with good reason in my opinion, …
Bizzy Bone From Your Rightousness

Good News for People Who Love Bad News, 2004 Album by Modest Mouse
This album is a fantastic work of musical art. There are some moments that clearly have weak spots. Some songs should have been on the album from my point of view because they are not consistent and high quality enough, but the main course, the central piece of the …
Avril Lavigne - nobody’s home accoustic
I like when singers perform they act accoustic because it’s shows to their fans about their real vocal quality. Like this one, Nobody’s home singing by Avril Lavigne. I don’t know where’s Avril Lavigne perform accousticly, I just hear it in bonus track in her second album, Under My …

Metallica - (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth
Overview —“ (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth is the fifth song on the first album released by Metallica which strikes me as an extremely strange move to even include this song on their debut record. For those of you who don’t know what this track is, this will become very clear …
Album : The Who - Who’s Next (1971)
Well this review should be pretty easy, i mean who doesn’t like The Who? well, if anybody answered that question by saying something like “Yeah, i like their radio singles, but i don’t know about the rest of their stuff”. Now is the time explore some of their more …
Watching You by Rodney Atkins
This song is a great example for all the parents out there. And I like how the lyrics convey a serious issue in a very comical way. A lot of parents don’t believe that the way they act and what they say affects their children. But it really does. …

Guns N Roses Chinese Democracy
For us those who are old enough to catch the tail-end of 80’s rock, rock icons Guns N’ Roses are definitely something we can be nostalgic about. Hard-core fans definitely miss the music of unique guitar sounds, equally unique and incredible song structure and craftsmanship and wildcat howls …

Miley Cyrus and Hannah Montana
If you have been listening to top 40 radio, you have no doubt heard about Miley Cyrus! This is Billy Ray Cyrus’s daughter, who has made millions for the Walt Disney Company. I have to say, I kinda like her. The music isn’t overly pop filled with nonsense, it’s …
Fender Stratocaster (made in Mexico)
Never buy a Fender unless you buy something equal to or better than an American Standard Stratocaster. ALL other Fenders are terrible. I hate them, it’s as if they don’t even try, they don’t even put Humbukkers or anything. Just a solid chunk of plastic and wood that you …
